AWARENESS OF OTHERS Counselor in Training Program ( CIT )
CIT Director : LaVenus Harried Teens entering grades 9 and 10
Our Counselor in Training ( CIT ) program is designed for those entering 9th and 10th grade who want first-hand leadership and staffing experience , while still enjoying time for social interaction . Our CITs participate in team-building , leadership training , and experience a summer they will never forget . CITs must commit to at least four weeks with us , but we encourage them to spend all eight weeks at Camp Hilbert to get the full experience . Each week will focus on a new set of skills and development topics . Our program is cumulative , so the lessons are progressive from 9th grade to 10th grade .
